My Car insurance would be $961 every 6 months.

I tried to do a check just now on loan verses lease but I don't know what the hell Residual Value is? that is the only field I have blank and it can't calculate it.

Not so surprisingly, this is also my dream car. I think that if you have the financial stability to handle the $400 addition to your monthly nut, then do it. One thing I would recommend, however would be to not get the Shaker audio system. It seems that you should be able to get something just as good for a lot less money.

I thought about that too, I have been spoiled when it came to cars, I always get them fully loaded. But yeah for $1300 I can get a kick as aftermarket stereo and have some change left.

Pretty steep on the insurance. You must have had a few tickets or be under 25.

Try about 50-55% of the selling price for residal value.

I don't plan on it, I know it may save you in payments but
1. your insurance is higher because you do not own the car. and
2...YOU DO NOT OWN THE CAR!

The last time that I checked Ford Mustangs have been around since before I was born in 1974.
